Zwrotka 1
Bm Four o'clock in the afternoon, Cmand C#mI didn't feel like very much.Cm  
Bm I said to my self, "where are you, golden boy, where'sCm yoC#mur famous golden touch?Cm
Bm I thought you knew where all of tCmhe C#melephants lie down,Cm  
Bm I thought you where the crown-prince of all tCmhe C#mwheels in Ivory Town.Cm  

Bm Just take a look at your body now,A#m  Am there's nothing much to save.A#m   
Bm And a bitter voice in the mirror cries "A#mHey, AmPrince, you need a shave."A#m   

Bm Now if you can manage to get your trembliCmng C#mfingers to behave,Cm  
Bm Why don't you try unwrapping a stainlessCm stC#meel razor blade? That's right,Cm  

Bm it's come to this.A#m Yes,Am it's come to this,

Refren
A# And wasn't it a lDong way dGown?
A# Wasn't it a strDange way dGown?

Zwrotka 2
BmThere's no hot water and thCme coC#mld is running thin,Cm  
Bm Well, what do you expect from the kind of places yCmou'vC#me been living in?Cm  
Bm Don't drink from that cup, it's all cakeCmd anC#md cracked along the rim,Cm  
Bm That's not electric light, my friend, that isCm youC#mr vision growing dim.Cm  

Bm Cover up your face with soap, theA#mre, Amnow you're Santa Claus,A#m   
Bm And you got a gift for anyone whoA#m wilAml give you his applauseA#m.  

Bm I thought you were a racing manCm, aC#mh, but you couldn't take the pace.Cm  
Bm That's a funeral in the mirrorCm, aC#mnd it's stopping at your face. That's right,Cm  

Bm it's come to this.A#m Yes,Am it's come to this,

Refren
A# And wasn't it a lDong way dGown?
A# Ah wasn't it a strDange way dGown?

Zwrotka 3
BmOnce there was a patCmh anC#md a girl with chestnut hair,Cm  
Bm And you passed the summers picking allCm of C#mthe berries that grew there.Cm  
Bm There were times she was a womanCm, ohC#m, there were times she was just a child,Cm  
Bm And you held her in the shadow whCmere C#mthe raspberries grow wild.Cm  

Bm And you climbed twilight mountains, A#mand Amyou sang about the view,A#m   
Bm And everywhere that you wandered, loA#mve sAmeemed to go along with you.A#m   

Bm That's a hard one to remember, yes,Cm it C#mmakes you clench your fist,Cm  
Bm And then the veins stand out like higCmhwayC#ms all along your wrist. And yesCm

Bm it's come to this.A#m Yeah,Am it's come to this,

Refren
A# And wasn't it a lDong way dGown?
A# Wasn't it a strDange way dGown?

Zwrotka 4
BmYou can still find a job, go out Cmand C#mtalk to a friend,Cm  
Bm On the back of every magazine, there areCm thoC#mse coupons you can send.Cm  
Bm Why don't you join the RosicruciansCm? ThC#mey will give you back your hope,Cm  
Bm You can find your love with diagrams on Cma plC#main brown envelope.Cm  

Bm But you've used up all your couponA#ms, eAmxcept the one that seems A#m   
Bm To be written on your wristA#m aloAmng with several thousand dreams.A#m   

Bm Now Santa Claus comes forwardCm, thC#mat's a razor in his mittCm
Bm And he puts on his dark glassesCm, anC#md he shows you where to hit.Cm  

Bm And then the cameras pA#man, Amthe stand-in stuntman,
